Auto_Da_Fe 18th Oct 2014 | | Music MemorabiliaThe 8-Trak Cartridge Family - Postcard | They didn't ever release a record - but, how about that! There's a video - [YouTube Video]
|
Auto_Da_Fe 9th Sep 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumThe House Of Love - The House Of Love | Noticed while dealing with photos that A side label typos first track as "Hanah". I wonder if this was corrected later?
|
Auto_Da_Fe 24th Aug 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumTimmy - Sings And Plays | no composer credits
|
Auto_Da_Fe 9th May 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Mekons - The Quality Of Mercy Is Not Strnen | For non English speakers -
"the quality of mercy is not strained" is a quotation from Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice. There is also an old saw to the effect that an infinite number of monkeys with typewriters will sooner or later write the complete works of Shakespeare. Hence the cover image and the title.
|
Auto_Da_Fe 9th May 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Mekons - The Quality Of Mercy Is Not Strnen | I had never noticed until preparing these images that the label has the title as "The Quality of Mercy is not Strained". I wonder if that is deliberate - or overzealous subbing at the typesetters.
|
Auto_Da_Fe 9th May 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Mekons - The Mekons | The painting on the front cover is Caspar David Friedrich's "Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer". This album is also sometimes known as "Devils, Rats & Piggies - A Special Message From Godzilla", for reasons that are not apparent to me. It is however, absolutely marvelous.

|
Auto_Da_Fe 5th May 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumThe B-52's - Whammy! | I've added the original release as a separate entry because it has a different track listing.
|
Auto_Da_Fe 1st May 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Armoury Show - Waiting For The Floods | Didn't photograph the front when I had this one out, because I thought I was filling in missing images for this one. I suspect they may be one and the same - but if somebody can confirm the existence of UK pressings with ARM 1 labels, even better!

Auto_Da_Fe 21st Sep 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumJill Sobule - Things Here Are Different | I seem to have an American disc inside a British sleeve. No idea if it was originally released that way - but I'll create the US entry, and put the labels there.
